{Cars Narrative} Suppose you choose two families at random.What is the chance that they each own one car? (That means family A owns a car and family B owns a car.)

A) 0.23
B) 0.23 + 0.23 = 0.46
C) 0.23 + 0.23 − (0.23) (0.23) = .4071

Question

{Cars Narrative} Suppose you choose two families at random.What is the chance that they each own one car? (That means family A owns a car and family B owns a car.)

A) 0.23
B) 0.23 + 0.23 = 0.46
C) 0.23 + 0.23 − (0.23) *(0.23) = .4071
D) (0.23) *(0.23) = 0.0529

Waiza Ahmad · Accepted Answer

Final Answer : D, Explanation :  The probability that each of two independent events happens is the product of their individual probabilities. If the probability that one family owns a car is 0.23, then the probability that both family A and family B each own a car is (0.23)*(0.23) = 0.0529.
